It's all down to personal responsibility with these assholes. And with labeling in this country, it's even worse. It's not even about the (poor) literacy here. It's all of the technicalities you have to figure out.

Nutrition facts don't help a much as they should because the proportions they list are unrealistic and the information requires a lot of understanding outside of the basics. Ingredient lists use euphemisms to get around telling you what you're consuming ('evaporated cane juice' is just sugar).

Coca-Cola won a lawsuit over Vitamin Water, the ruling stating that it doesn't have to be healthy.

So we live in a country where corporations are people, allowed to lie, and have a profit incentive to hide the truth. They also have the time and resources to make and find loopholes to get around regulations.

And god forbid you find a workaround as a consumer. They'll close the loop and then try to sue into oblivion if you find a way to reliably navigate the system.

But yeah, it's a random person's fault that they ate a chip and died.
